WATCH: World’s Fastest Car – Hennessey Venom GT!

The Bugatti Veyron is meant to be the fastest car in the world, but an Ameircan car called a Hennessey Venom GT seems to be just that little bit quicker.

This video shows the car going 270 miles an hour. To give you an idea of just how quick that is, when grown-ups drive on the motorway they’re going at 70 miles an hour.

There are some special race cars which can go faster than this, but they’re not allowed on the road, this Hennessey Venom is, so set the record. Well, it would have.

Unfortunately for it to be an official record somebody from Guinness World Records would have had to be there, and they weren’t. But if the video’s telling the truth, it’s definitely the fastest road car in the world.
